Protein Mimetic Promotes Blood Vessel Relaxation
Researchers have found that a mimetic of the last protein in a complex signaling pathway, HSP20, can relax smooth muscle cells and may lead to the development of a drug that promotes blood vessel relaxation, preventing dangerous spasms. More...19 May 2003
Molecular Mimicry Enhances Early Viral Infection
Researchers have found that early infection of T-cells by the human T-lymphotrophic virus-1 (HTLV-1) is enhanced because a section or motif of the HTLV-1 p12 protein is identical to a motif in the human calcium regulatory protein NFAT. More...16 May 2003
Protein Receptor Controls Fat Storage
Researchers working with a mouse model for obesity have found that when activated, the protein receptor peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor (PPARd) depleted fat deposits in the mice but that when mice lacked activated PPARd, they tended toward obesity. More...16 May 2003
